Hello!

For our house construction, we have purchased tiles and klinker on our own and now need to transport them to the construction site about 80 kilometers away.

Is it okay to transport this on a regular trailer, or does it need to be transported "more gently"?

The klinker is granite ceramic, if that makes any difference.

As long as you don't drive with overload, (easily done), and the plates are packed properly, it shouldn't be any problem at all. If it's a gravel road, you might just have to drive extra slowly possibly.

If possible, stand the plates upright. If so, you can drive over the Rocky Mountains at full parra.

No problem. Think about even load and not overweight. Secure them as best as you can so they don't move on the flatbed. Drive calmly and not in potholes.

Thank you for your responses! I'll use the trailer then.
 
....well, as I said, don't load large tiles lying down...... when I picked up a larger load at the tile company in Bromma, they took the opportunity to tell horror stories about builders who filled the trailer and came home with zero intact tiles...

Our tiles are 30x30 at most. Can try to set them up.

Maybe a little different in vans. But I remember when I was rented out to different companies, and we were helping a tile center to deliver tiles to apartments. He just lifted in a pallet that must have weighed twice as much as we were allowed to drive. The owner thought I should drive, and I did on the first trip. But when the wheel arches were touching the tires all around, I refused. But everything was intact, and they were lying down =)
